I had a chat with a friend yesterday who is riding the Tour of Hope next weekend with Lance. She just bought a bike this year for the first time and is totally into cycling now. She is so hyped by it that she is getting me interested now. I've been quizi-interested for a while but couldn't afford to be interested (if you know what I mean!). Now that the DH has a real job again I think I'm going to take up cycling after my "healing process" of having the baby.

You should! It's great cross training for us runners and really balances out the muscles in the legs and reduces injuries. IMO.

Tattletale!  So I crashed her on the first day! Went to show JR and as I rode into her yard very slowly, I had trouble getting my toe outta the cage and over I went.  She(the bike) is fine. The tomato cage I landed on however was totaled! I have 2 huge bruises on my calf and lower knee.  I was very graceful.

As long as you don't go topless I think we are all okay with your next move!
